Workplaces to Enjoy

Abstraction in form; colour neutrality and fluid
lines of curvature define workspaces designed by Delhi-based Kapil Aggarwal of
KA Designs. IAnD profiles two of his recent projects...

His abstract shapes attract a pulsating energy into
his interior spaces; as if the fluid lines have a lot to say. Yet, Kapil keeps
the maximum out of general vision by relegating them to a play of geometric
forms in the ceiling with a little trickling down on the walls, catching one’s
attention and as one looks up, gradually allowing one’s eye to bask in the
complete interplay of the design.

.

Form and function amalgamate. An open-office takes
shape, complete with emphasis on branding, comfort and ease in upkeep, without
any compromise on requisite zoning, transparency that is the hallmark of an
open layout and fostering creative environs.

.

Speaking about his bi-levelled
office, Kapil enthuses about creating vitality through use of the colour green
and back-lit components that stand out along with the white furniture and minimal use of wood amidst a cement-finished interior envelope. Amplifying the spacious
feel and playing on the tenets of youthfulness and contemporaneity, he uses
glass in partitions. A highlight is an interesting multiple-box-panelled ceiling, displaying
the journey of different projects and ideologies of the firm.

In a similar vein,
his design for the Cubix office apportions the space into public and
semi-private areas, connecting the corridors with interior spaces, creating
interesting transitional pockets. Continuing the ‘fluid’ thematic, the designer
uses free-flowing shapes in furniture design, pendulum lights, sofas and walls,
whilst adding character and interest through accent elements like a bright
yellow seating, display of a building model and multiple project images, in the
otherwise monochromatic palette.

With emphasis on
chiselling a contemporary, happening work place, where one’s maximum waking
hours are spent, Kapil adeptly manages to derive Draft of them students as
future brand ambassadors of AP tcommunicative spaces, delivering unique
identity and soul to each of his works.
